RPCV/W also plays a major role in commemorating key anniversaries of the Peace Corps. In September of 2011, RPCV/W planned, funded, and implemented a two-hour ceremony at the Arlington National Cemetery Memorial Amphitheater, which was attended by over 5,000 and included a march of flags across the Memorial Bridge and into the National Mall.

Overseeing all of this is our Special Events Director, who can be contacted at specialevents@rpcvw.org, if you would like to help with planning or volunteer your services at a particular event.
